Chapter 036: The Next World

A few days later, in the world of Highschool of the Dead, under the efforts of Wang Bo's demons and Kryptonians, earth-shaking changes had taken place.

At least half of the zombies across the entire planet had already died at the hands of the demons and Kryptonians.

Most of the remaining humans had been saved.

But to Wang Bo's surprise, the survivors who had lived through this numbered only sixty million, not even a hundred million.

That was somewhat exaggerated.

When Wang Bo entered this world, the virus crisis had just begun; at that time, Wang Bo had already started dispatching demons and Kryptonians to sweep the zombies from this world.

But even so, most of humanity had still died as a result.

After sweeping zombies across most of the Earth, only a little over sixty million had survived; even if the remaining humans were gathered together, it would probably only be a little over a hundred million.

With a global population of several billion, only a little over a hundred million survived—this was undoubtedly a great catastrophe.

Yet interestingly, this catastrophe was not a natural disaster but man-made.

Wang Bo's Kryptonian scientist Radlow had submitted a report to Wang Bo not long ago. The report was filled with a large number of technical terms, but it could be summed up in one sentence.

This virus was man-made.

In other words, someone created this virus, then leaked it, eventually affecting the entire world and causing this catastrophe.

Radlow also told Wang Bo that when the disaster struck, it had swept through every corner of the world.

That is, the people who created this virus were not individuals but an organization. After developing the virus, they took it to various parts of the world and simultaneously leaked it.

Thus triggering this生化危机 (biohazard), which is why the crisis swept the world as soon as it began.

From the very start, their goal was to annihilate all of humanity.

For such anti-human elements, Wang Bo had only one thought.

"Malthus."

"I am here, master." Wang Bo's butler appeared before Wang Bo in an elegant posture.

Wang Bo casually opened a portal to America. "Go find Radlow, ask him exactly which organization created this catastrophe, then find them."

Malthus nodded and said, "How should I deal with these people?"

Wang Bo said expressionlessly, "Every single one of them, kill without mercy!"

Since these people didn't want to be human, Wang Bo could only send them to see God—no, dying at the hands of demons, even their souls would be devoured, they wouldn't get to see God at all.

"As you command, my master." Malthus nodded and stepped through the portal to America.

After Wang Bo closed the portal, Caroline walked in from outside.

"Master."

"What is it? Is there something?" Wang Bo looked up at his maid.

Caroline said, "Master, the survivors currently gathered in Sakura Country want to rebuild their homeland. They have sent several representatives hoping to negotiate with you."

Wang Bo nodded and said, "Let them in."

Caroline conveyed Wang Bo's order. Escorted by two demons, several men in suits, sweating profusely, and two beautiful girls walked into the private Fuji Academy.

This had become Wang Bo's temporary base.

After some renovations, it looked more luxurious than a palace.

"Who are you?" Wang Bo asked.

The group quickly introduced themselves: one was the Prime Minister of Sakura Country, one was the King of Sakura Country, several were members of parliament, and the last two pretty girls were princesses of the royal family.

Wang Bo said "Oh" indifferently, "I already understand the purpose of your visit, but I can tell you clearly: I have given this planet to my subordinates. Strictly speaking, you no longer have any connection to this planet."

Hearing Wang Bo's words, the men's faces turned pale, and the two girls' beauty faded.

After a long while, the Prime Minister cautiously asked, "Then how does Your Excellency intend to deal with us?"

Wang Bo said, "I still have an Earth, an Earth from another world. Their Earth, like yours, experienced a生化危机 (biohazard) world, full of man-eating zombies."

"Now, I have already sent my subordinates to deal with the zombies in that world. Once the zombies are cleaned up, I plan to move you there and let you work together to rebuild the world."

The Prime Minister was dumbfounded, as if he had heard some fantastic tale.

After a long time, he came to his senses and reluctantly accepted Wang Bo's statement. "Your Excellency..."

But just as he was about to speak, Wang Bo interrupted him. "Alright, go back and tell your people to prepare for relocation. In about a month, you will set off. Don't worry, I won't exploit you; I will give you ample support to rebuild society. You may leave."

The Prime Minister wanted to say something more, but Caroline glared at him, and his voice was taken away, leaving him unable to speak.

The two demons, one in each hand, tossed the whole group out in a few moves.

Even the two delicate princesses were no exception; they screamed as the demons threw them out.

The world suddenly fell silent.

Wang Bo turned to Caroline and said, "Notify all survivors to prepare for relocation to the new world at any time. Also, through all demons, if any humans are found causing trouble, deal with them harshly; in severe cases, kill them directly."

Wang Bo was well aware of the saying "use severe punishment in troubled times."

At this critical juncture, humanity could not afford internal strife, so Wang Bo adopted a high-pressure policy; any human trying to stir up trouble must be severely punished.

Caroline nodded and conveyed the order.

As for what kind of storm this order would stir up, Wang Bo was already too busy to care.

Because he was once again being urged.

The transmigrator from the Highschool of the Dead world, Ada Wong, had already been sent away by Wang Bo. This world no longer had any transmigrators, so his cheat, like a vengeful ghost demanding his life, urged Wang Bo to move on to the next world.

This made Wang Bo very unhappy, but at the same time, he was well aware that his resistance was futile.

No matter how powerful Wang Bo was, if he insisted on staying, he would be sent to a new world by the cheat without realizing it. So Wang Bo could only comply with the cheat's urging and head to the next world.

But before leaving, Wang Bo casually asked, "What is the next world?"

[Ready Player One]

Hearing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but laugh. This world was good. Upon learning that he was going to this world, Wang Bo's last bit of resistance vanished, and he cheerfully headed to the world of Ready Player One.
